Last lines from Winter

I´m right now at home bacause, as you know, I have angina!! I´m tired of being in bed!!! I take my lap-top to bed and share this link with you...

You know winter´s about to finish in this hemisphere so before it ends let´s think of winter as a time for introspection...

In this video segment from Poetry Everywhere, actress Mary Louise Parker recites the poem, "Lines for Winter" by Mark Strand, exploring themes of isolation and self-discovery.

I hope you enjoy it dear all!!

Lines For Winter by Mark Strand
Tell yourselfas it gets cold and gray falls from the air

that you will go on

walking, hearing

the same tune no matter where

you find yourself --inside the dome of dark

or under the cracking white

of the moon's gaze in a valley of snow.

Tonight as it gets cold

tell yourself

what you know which is nothing

but the tune your bones play

as you keep going. And you will be able

for once to lie down under the small fire

of winter stars.

And if it happens that you cannot

go on or turn back and you find yourself

where you will be at the end,

tell yourself

in that final flowing of cold through your limbs

that you love what you are.
